I bet many of you have had questions about RAW format, why it's good, why there are so many different versions, why they are not compatible etc. Well, Adobe came out with free standard called DNG to create some sort of order in the chaotic world of different RAW formats. It's open architecture and documentation should help make sure that you can open your digital "negatives" in the future. Photoshopnews.com has tackled DNG and written very extensively about DNG format and how to use it in your workflow.
To understand the benefits of a DNG workflow, you must first understand how to use it. In its simplest form, you take proprietary raw files and use the DNG Converter to convert them into DNG. The application itself is very simple. It can live anywhere, in your applications folder or even just sitting on your desktop-that’s where I tend to keep it.
